Liverpool Ace Tips International Teammate To Be Perfect Fit At Anfield
Liverpool defender Daniel Agger feels Danish teammate Christian Eriksen would be a perfect fit an Anfield amid rumours the Reds are interested in his signature
With the summer transfer window set to re-open, there is plenty of gossip doing the rounds in the newspapers so we’ll keep you up-to-date with the latest transfer rumours. Today, Daniel Agger would love to see Christian Eriksen at Liverpool.
Liverpool defender Daniel Agger feels international teammate Christian Eriksen would be a perfect fit an Anfield amid rumours the Reds are going head-to-head with Borussia Dortmund over his signature, according to the Express.
The 21-year-old Danish international has seen his future fill the gossip pages in recent months after confirming he is likely to leave Ajax this summer, and the Express claim Borussia Dortmund have joined Liverpool in showing an interest in signing him at the end of the season.
The report suggests Brendan Rodgers hopes of luring him to Merseyside have been dealt a blow after the German giants opened talks with Eriksen’s agent over a move to the Bundesliga, but Reds defender Agger feels his compatriot is exactly the type of player Liverpool need in their new passing game:
“We aim to become a passing team, keeping the ball on the ground.
“He represents exactly that style. Eriksen is the type we need.” Agger is quoted as saying by the Express.
Eriksen has become one of the hottest properties in Europe in recent seasons and has enjoyed another superb campaign in Holland, scoring 10 goals and providing 13 assists in 33 games to help guide Ajax to the Eredivisie title this season.
Rodgers has already hinted he’ll be looking to add to his attacking options ahead of next season and the playmaker would be an excellent signing, and while Agger would certainly welcome him at Anfield it seems Liverpool have a fight on their hands to try and lure him to the Premier League this summer.
